Business owner: 1: (1) Master Bedroom would be where the owner of the house hold would sleep. This room would be upstairs and would be private for family only. This room would include a bed and some of the family heirlooms in the closet. This room would be upstairs since in most homes that would be where private areas were.
This is a picture of a master bedroom. It looks sort of plain.Since it is a private room no one but him and his wife see the room so there is no point in making it look all special.
2:(1)Girls bedroom would be for the girls to sleep in. This would also be a room upstairs in a private area of the house. This room would include 2 beds and possibly a crib. It would generally be near the master bed room.
This is a picture of a possible girls bedroom. It has a bed to sleep on and a couple of toys younger girls might have brought into their room. But there aren't enough toys to call it a playroom or nursery.
3:(1)Boys bedroom would be for the boys to sleep in. It would be generally be near the master bedroom. This would also be a private area for family only.This room also would have 2 beds and a crib.
This picture of a possible boys bedroom. This room seems to be for older boys. There are no toys like a normal bedroom of this time. Also this room shows a little bit of the wealth that the father have as business owner.
4:(1)Guest room for if a guest were to stay overnight. Would have 1 to 2 beds, would be decorated nicely to show wealth. It would also have a work desk so the guest could do work if needed.
This is a picture of a possible guest room. It has a bed and it has a work desk in case of the guest having to fill out any work during his stay. This room is also flashy, and has nice stuff to make the guests think that their hosts had more money than they really did.
5:(2)Outhouse is a small building outside the original house. It will be used as a place to go to the bathroom. Being outside means that your house will not stink after you go. You can just lift the holes right out and dump them where no one has to smell them.
This is an outhouse that would be used when someone had to go to the bathroom. This picture is much like what an outhouse back then was like.
6:(1) Parlor would be located downstairs near the front door where guests would usually come in. Also the parlor would be where the guests would hang out with the family and where they would play "parlor games," or games played in the parlor.
This is a picture of a parlor. It is of a small parlor with a tea table and a couch. It is a nice parlor, it shows wealth because of the valuable colors.
7:(1)Dining room is the place where the family would eat informally and formally. Also if a party was going on the food would be set at this table.
This room would probably be next to the kitchen.
This picture goes very nicely with the definition of the dining room. It is nicely decorated to impress their guests. It also shows their wealth in that they can have that marble fireplace.
8: (1)The kitchen is 1 of the most important rooms in a house. The kitchen is where all of the food for the family is cooked. This room is generally not the nicest looking room. It doesn't need to be since guests usually don't go in there.
This shows the average kitchen during this time. It is not the cleanest place but there was generally not many people in it because of this. it is where all the small meals made.
9: (1)The office is used for the people living in the house to do work especially for the business owner. There is also one in the guest room just in case the guest has work they need to do.
This is the office. It has a work desk and files. This is where the business owner works on his stuff.
10: (1)The laundry area/dish washing area is located outside and it is where the family would wash their clothes and probably their dishes too.there are big buckets and towels to do the dishes and wash clothes.
The laundry room outside would work well with most of the houses in the southern colonies where this house would be. Just like in the picture you could air dry your clothes.
11:(1) The garden was mainly a way to show off wealth. Dances and parties could be held here.One way of showing off their wealth was to make elaborate displays of flowers and trees.
This garden shows wealth because the branches are cut from the trees and then they adapted to the wood fence and so they can grow. that is why this is very valuable to the people.
12: (1)There was a second kitchen that was used for mainly the big meals for parties and holidays. This kitchen was generally bigger than the kitchen on the 1st floor, it had a bigger fireplace to cook over.
This kitchen is even less clean than the kitchen upstairs. this is where the party meals or holiday meals are made.As you can see this fire place is bigger than the fire place upstairs.
13:(1) The pantry was used as a storage area for a variety of things. You could store dried meats for short periods of time in this room. You could also store plates and spices in this room too.
Like the kitchen the pantry is not clean. This is where the dried meat is stored for a short time. Also the spices and plates are stored here in this pictures.
